The middle-aged man in the gray cloak was slightly startled, and carefully looked at the tall figure shrouded in darkness on the throne above, and said: "Lord Night King, although the "Rebirth Spring" is expensive, it should not count if it can gain the submission of an elder.
It’s such a loss” "If we can get his submission, it's not a loss."
The person on the throne said indifferently: "But this person calls himself the Demon King.
Hmm, the Holy See of Light calls us evil demons, so he calls himself the Demon King.
How can a person with such ambitions do so?
I will be willing to submit to the submission of others, but I have just taken over as an elder and my foundation is too weak to refuse.
If there is an opportunity in the future, I will definitely establish myself as the king."
The expression of the middle-aged man in the gray cloak changed slightly, and he continued: "Lord Night King, in this case, we might as well take the ninth district as our own before his wings harden.
In this case, if he wants to be the devil in the future, He can only be a polished commander."
"It is impossible to take it as your own, but you must not give the opportunity to make District 9 stronger, otherwise the current pattern of checks and balances between the three kings will be broken and fall into chaos."
The Night King said coldly.
"yes."
The sky is bright.
Dudian was still reading the information about District 9 in the office.
After a night of reading, he had a general understanding of District 9.
Among the twelve districts of the Dark Holy See, District 9 was considered to be below average.
The number, wealth, and force of believers are far inferior to those of other major districts, especially the third district controlled by the Night King.
"I didn't expect that the gap between the twelve regions would be so big.
I don't know if this Night King is the deacon of the supervision department appointed by the monastery."
Du Di'an thought secretly in his heart, but then he thought again, "Is he the same status?
There is no difference between people.
According to the words of the head of punishment, once he is exposed, he will either be returned to the inner wall area to serve, or he will be pushed out to be sentenced to death.
Regardless of his status, he will be either a friend or an enemy in the future. " "Elder, you called me."
Hawkeye opened the door and came in.
Dudian nodded and ordered: "Call all the five-star alchemists, great potion masters, great diviners, and dark knight captains and dark knights in our ninth district.
I want to hold a meeting."
"Meeting."
Hawkeye was slightly startled, but soon understood, nodded and said, "I'll inform them right away."
Dudian nodded, and after he left, he continued to read other information.
These information also included eleven other areas, which were all information collected by successive elders.
"The three kings in the twelve districts are the "Night King" in the third district, the "Sword King" in the first district, and the "Pluto" in the fifth district.
The three kings are attached to other elders.
In addition, the second District, District 10, and District 12 are all scattered factions, and there are no three people attached to them.
From this point of view, they should be divided into four factions in total.
These three scattered factions should take care of each other, but only to a certain extent.
Just take care of it. " Dudian's eyes flashed slightly and he was silent in thought.
After a long time.
Eagle Eye came to report and said respectfully: "Elder, two five-star great alchemists, Stuart and Corina, have arrived and are waiting for you in the conference hall."
Dudian glanced at the hourglass next to him, frowned, and said, "Where are the others?"
Hawkeye lowered his head and said, "Still on the way here."
"Are you usually this slow?"
Dudian frowned.
Hawkeye glanced at him quietly and then quickly lowered his head and said: "Elder, some of them have a long journey, and some of them have things on their hands, so it is inevitable that they will be a little slower."
Dudian noticed his gaze, his face was slightly cold, and he said: "What was the slowest gathering time for your meetings in the past?"
A trace of nervousness flashed in Hawkeye's eyes, and he said: "Reporting to the elders, the slowest time in the past was about two and a half hours."

"Okay, it's been an hour now, wait another hour and a half."
Dudian waved his hand: "You can step back first and let them wait whoever arrived first."
"Yes."
Hawkeye hesitated to speak, but finally held back and resigned.
An hour and a half passed quickly.
Dong Dong, Hawkeye knocked on the door.
"Come in."
Hawkeye pushed the door open and walked in.
He looked at Dudian at his desk who was concentrating on flipping through stacks of information piled next to him.
He quickly lowered his head and said, "Sir, the time has come."
Du Dian withdrew his eyes from a copy of the information on the regional branches and numbers of grass-roots personnel in various professions in the Ninth District in his hand.
He looked up at Eagle Eye and said, "Are they all here?"
Hawkeye looked hesitant and said, "Elder, there are still seven people who haven't arrived yet."
"Seven" Dudian raised his eyebrows.
The total number of people attending the meeting was only sixteen, and at this moment, nearly half of them didn’t come.
"Okay."
Dudian stood up and said, "Write down the names of those who didn't come and give them to me later."
Yingyan saw Dudian's unkind look and said: "Sir, when you first come to take over, they will inevitably want to put on some airs.
If we start a fight with them, it will have a great impact on our ninth district.
If they defect to In other districts, the losses will be even greater.
I hope you will not be impulsive."
Dudian was about to pass him by, but he stopped when he heard this, and said in a cold voice: "Please remember, in my territory, no one can put on airs with me."
Hawkeye was stunned.
Dudian has strode out.
Hawkeye hurriedly turned around to follow, leading Dudian in front.
At the same time, he secretly glanced at the eyes on Dudian's mask, but found that he did not see the anger he imagined, but a pair of calm and deep eyes.
Under the guidance of the eagle eye, Dudian passed through the hall on the second floor and came to a spacious room on the left.
He could see eleven figures sitting in the room, five of which were exuding blazing flames.
The heat of the remaining six people is relatively dim, only slightly higher than that of normal people.
However, the bodies of these six people are a bit weird, and the body heat is unevenly distributed.
Two of them have extremely hot arms, but their body heat is It was very gloomy, and there was one person whose chest was red but his limbs felt like heat.
"Elder, please."
Hawkeye took the initiative to open the door and said respectfully to Dudian.
Dudian entered the room.
It was a very luxurious conference hall, decorated with splendor, including the tables and chairs used for the meeting.
They were made of expensive materials, extraordinary style, and were made by great craftsmen.
As soon as the door opened, the conversations and laughter in the conference hall stopped abruptly.
Everyone turned their heads or raised their eyes to look at Dudian standing at the door.
When they saw the mask on Dudian's face, someone frowned. wrinkle.
Facing the attention of everyone, Du Di'an was not nervous.
Although he knew that everyone present was the boss of the Dark Holy See, and outside they were all "evils" from the famous town, which was frightening, but he is no longer the same person he was a few years ago.
As a young child, when he had achieved the status of a master of magic, he had seen many masters in the temple, and he was already able to deal with these situations calmly.
He came to the conference hall and took a seat, looked around and said: "Hello everyone, this is the first time we meet.
I am the new elder, codenamed Demon King.
I have called you here today.

I just want to chat for a few words."
When "Demon King" heard this unabashedly domineering code name, everyone was startled, with a trace of astonishment in their eyes.
Soon, a voluptuously dressed woman sitting on a nearby chair immediately said: "Codenamed Elder Demon King, do you know that among the elders in the twelve regions of our Dark Holy See, except for the three kings, no one dares to kill the king?"
Incorporating the characters into the code name, are you doing this too openly?
If the three kings misunderstand it, our ninth district will become the target of public criticism."
"yes" "Elder, your code name is too provocative, please change it."
Two people nearby echoed.
Du Di'an narrowed his eyes and waited quietly for them to finish.
Seeing that no one else spoke, he said: "On the first day of our meeting today, you asked me to change my code name.
Is this your welcome ceremony?"
The expressions of the three people who spoke before changed slightly, and the enchanting woman said: "Elder, you misunderstood, we have no other meaning, but your code name is too ostentatious.
Our ninth district is only at a medium level among the twelve districts.
If You have caused the displeasure of the three kings, and the consequences will be disastrous."
Dudian stared at her, and he could roughly tell from her clothing that this woman was a great potion master.
He smiled slightly and said, "It's unimaginable."
Seeing the thorn in his words, the enchanting woman couldn't help but look ugly and said: "Elder, I am just being kind."
"I know."
Du Di'an interrupted her, and the smile in his eyes turned cold instantly.
He glanced at everyone and said slowly: "I called you here today just to chat for a few words and talk about the future of our ninth district.
Positioning and development, I have only one goal, to be the strongest.”
As soon as these words came out, the conference room fell silent.
Everyone looked at Dudian in astonishment, dumbfounded.
A middle-aged man next to "The Strongest" was stunned for a while, and said with a wry smile: "Elder, you have just taken office, and you may not know much about the situation here.
We are in District 9."
"I understand."
Du Di'an interrupted him and said: "I have seen the situation in District 9, and I also know the intelligence of the three kings.
With our current capabilities, we really cannot compete with the three kings, but, We can develop and catch up, but do you want to keep looking at the faces of the three kings, swallowing your anger when resources are plundered, and dare not speak out when you are angry?"
After hearing his words, everyone looked at each other.
From the last sentence alone, they knew that Dudian had indeed done his homework.
"Of course we want to, but it is so difficult to catch up with the Three Kings.
With the resources and connections we have, even if they stagnate, it will take us ten years to catch up."
Another old man next to him said helplessly.
"That's right."
The enchanting woman nodded and said to Du Di'an: "Sir, since you said so, do you have any plans?
If it's just words, it's better to say less so as not to arouse the anger of the three kings.
The anger, this is not something we in District 9 can bear."
Dudian said calmly: "The plan is very simple.
Just improve the academy's curriculum training, vigorously cultivate new five-star alchemists and great potion masters, and at the same time cultivate more dark knights."
Hearing this, the enchanting woman was stunned.
It took her a while to react, her eyes widened and she said, "Elder, you are joking."
Dudian said seriously: "Isn't it?"
The enchanting woman couldn't laugh or cry, and said: "Of course what you said is correct, but the problem is that it takes more than just a few years to cultivate a new five-star alchemist, a great potion master, or even a great diviner.
If we can do it, even if we are lucky enough to meet some talented students, it will take seven or eight years to achieve anything.
If we want to cultivate new five-star alchemists, it would be good to have two within ten years. " "Don't think this thing is too difficult."
Du Di'an said indifferently: "I have my own methods for these.

I am calling you here today.
I just want to tell you that in the future, I hope you will carry out the tasks I will give you seriously.
If it is due to personal reasons, The mission failed, and the consequences are definitely not what you want to see."
"Hmph" a heavy cold snort suddenly sounded.
A middle-aged man wearing a black waistcoat and cloak sitting at the end of the conference table raised his eyes slightly, his rough face full of ridicule, and looked at Dudian coldly, Said: "Ignorant, I really don't know how the higher-ups can appoint people like you as elders.
It's ridiculous.
What kind of professions do you think alchemists and potion masters are?
You can learn whatever you want.
You think everyone can become a dark knight as long as they have the blessing of God."
"Long ignorant" Dudian narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at him quietly.
"Why, you're not convinced?"
The middle-aged man's eyes were full of coldness and arrogance, and he looked directly at Du Dian without any fear.
Dudian knows where his confidence lies.
As a dark knight captain, he is definitely a high-level figure in his region.
Even the elders need to treat him politely, otherwise he can defect to other regions at any time.
Reputation will have a certain impact, and it will be difficult to defect a second time, but in the end there is room for free choice.
Moreover, with his own strength and influence, as well as the team of Dark Knights he commands, even if the elders order his arrest, it will be difficult to do so.
This is what makes the Dark Knight Captain so awesome.
"Is there anything else you want to say?"
Dudian said.
The middle-aged man snorted coldly and said: "I came here today.
I wanted to give you some thin noodles, but I didn't expect that the new one was a pustule.
He didn't even have a firm footing.
He dared to challenge the three kings and talk too much.
If I had known this, I would have It’s better to sleep at home and waste time” Dudian still just looked at him quietly.
When the middle-aged man saw that Du Dian had not spoken for a long time, his face looked a little ugly and his eyes became even more gloomy.
He said, "Why, don't you have anything to say?"
"Now that you've finished speaking, let me talk about it."
Dudian said slowly: "You just said that it is difficult to cultivate alchemists, and it is also difficult to cultivate dark knights.
Indeed, it is very difficult for you, otherwise the ninth district After so many years, you won’t just be in the middle or lower position, but now, starting from today, District 9 is under my control.
This is my territory.
You only need to do the tasks I assigned you.
In half a year at most, District 9 will be Become one of the top five districts and I will also become the new king."
"I've left the words here.
You can choose to believe it or not, but whether you believe it or not, I will only say it once.
If anyone fails to complete the tasks I assigned due to personal reasons, or secretly colludes with other regions, I will not take it lightly.
Rao" Hearing this, everyone was a little surprised, including the enchanting woman and the middle-aged man, whose expressions changed slightly.
They didn't expect Du Dian's tone to be so loud.
The middle-aged man frowned, feeling a little dissatisfied.
However, seeing Du Di'an's determined look, the sarcasm in his heart came to his lips, and he finally held it back.
After all, half a year passed quickly.
If the newly appointed elder had not With little confidence, there is no reason to say such big words.
If he breaks the trust of everyone, the elder will be in vain, and his prestige will be completely lost.
He believed that Dudian would definitely know the consequences of this.
After all, he was a person sent by the superiors to serve as an elder, so he should have the brains to do so.

"Elder, do you have any plans?"
the old man next to him asked curiously.
Dudian said: "This is natural."
"Since you, elder, have already said this, let's just believe you."
The enchanting woman glanced at the crowd and said to Du Di'an.
There was no joy in Dudian's eyes.
He turned around and said to Hawkeye next to him: "Have you written down the list of those who didn't come?"
"It's written."
Hawkeye quickly handed it over respectfully.
Dudian did not answer, but just said: "No need to read, everyone here has canceled their positions
